Vintage wedding dress with headpiece/long veil, looking for info please

This dress had been packed away with the headpiece/veil that is shown in the following photos.  I am assuming they go together and that this is a wedding dress, I am also assuming it is handmade as I do not see any tags on it.  I am wondering what decade or specific era that this dress was likely made, and any other information that anyone might be willing to share.  It is a light cream in color.  Thank you!!

That's certainly not a wedding dress.  And wouldn't have been worn with the veil.  Looks like a homemade nightgown finished with hand smocking and crochet.  Would have been white in its time.  Is it a heavyish cotton?   If a lighter lawn, might have been a summer dress.

Without seeing how veil affixes, can't get a sense of age.
